Together, these sister companies will offer a holistic solution, enabling customers to meet their reporting obligations in an efficient and cost effective manner.

Irene Mermigidis, Managing Director, REGIS-TR, said: “We’re delighted to be able to offer this solution. We are uniquely positioned as a Trade Repository with expertise in regulatory reporting, but also with a wealth of knowledge in the Securities Finance world through our sister companies at Clearstream and Eurex. This announcement marks the continuation of our close collaboration to alleviate the reporting burden for market participants to the greatest extent possible. We are the natural choice of Trade Repository for SFTR.”
